AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

THE GUARDIAN OF THE SUN is a 70 by 100 cm painting by contemporary artist Ernest García. The painting becomes a space of metaphysical suspension where the classical and the cosmic converse in silence. A sculptural head, of serene beauty and Greco-Roman heritage, floats among dense and luminous clouds. Its closed eyes suggest introspection, but a red wound —intense, visceral— interrupts the marble harmony of the face. It is not a dramatic gesture, it is a sign. A mark of consciousness.

Below, a perfect, absolute red sun hovers above an earthy horizon. It does not light the sky: it seems contained, protected, watched over. The sphere is not scenery, it is a symbol. It is concentrated energy, passion, vital power.

The work proposes a tension between the eternal and the human. The classical head —symbol of reason and ideal beauty— appears marked by red, as if knowledge came at a price. The sun, suspended and monumental, embodies the primordial: the origin of life, the source of all light. The blue sky, almost infinite, acts as a metaphysical backdrop. There is no recognizable time. There is no explicit narrative. Only presence. The serenity of the face contrasts with the chromatic intensity of the celestial body, creating a dialogue between sculptural coldness and elemental heat.


“The Guardian of the Sun” is an allegory about guarding one's inner energy, about watching over one's own creative fire, and about the fragility of the balance between reason and passion. It is a work of strong symbolic charge, of surreal and metaphysical language, where color acts as an emotional structure and the image remains suspended in a timeless dimension.
